In his message Governor Lounsbury said: stSome future legislature will fix the life sen- tence as the penalty for every crime the commission of which shall show that the man is already confirmed criminal" And in explanation of this he afterwards said: What approve is the Ohio law, that is, that where criminal has for the third time com- mitted felony, having already served out two sentences, he should thereafter he re- strained of his liberty. He should be treat ed precisely as a confirmed lunatic is treated to permanent confinement. Sa
 The legislature which has just adjourned evidently paid some attention to this, for it passed bill providing that when person shall have been twice convicted, sentenced and imprisoned in the State prison for any two years, and shall thereafter be convicted, sentenced and imprisoned in the State prison for any crime for which the minimum pun ishment is two years Imprisonment, such person shall be taken to be an incorrigible, and after the expiration of the third sentence shall be detained in prison for twenty-five years longer unless allowed to go out on parole, subject to be at any time re-impris- oned by the board of directors. This bill became law May 17th.
 The working of this law will be watched with deep interest by students of social prob lems It is fair enough to consider crimi nal "incorrigib1e'' after two convictions as are provided for by the law, and if kept in prison for twenty-five years few incorrigibles would come out alive. But the provision for the reformation of such as can be reformed makes the law humane one. It will, we believe, work we'll. As the Hartford Cour- ant puts it: The criminal now is in a new position He is deterred from committing 8 State prison offense by the knowledge that in it he is taking the first step to a life im- prisonment. And when he has incurred that long sentence he is stimulated to good be- havior as the only means of shortening it. Here are two powerful motives. If exper- fence shows that they are not strong enough to be effective under this law, then the next step will be to confne him on an indefinite sentence after the second conviction.
 Of course the reformation of criminals under this law will depend very much on the system adopted and those who carry it out But whether many are reformed or not it will be good thing to have them shut up where they cannot prey upon the community, and where they will have to earn their living.
